I wish I had a dollar for every time someone emailed me after a scene to complement my music or asked what I played for our session.
.
While I make such a blasé remark, those emails mean quite a lot to me. I put a tremendous amount of througth into the atmosphere I want someone to experience while we’re together and though I tend to stick with a small but versatile rotation of artists, I only play tracks suitable to the scene I’m about to perform…truth be told, some of my regulars have actually had playlists made for our dates specifically. You can be suspicious if our music ever sync’s up just a little too well with what’s happening in the physical realm.
.
For example, if you’ve ever been in a predicament where you find yourself staring down the barrel of a very long strap on and you hear NIN Closer in the background: that’s no mistake.
Or perhaps you’re being dressed up like a slutty little whore and Madonna’s Material Girl kicks on….that’s for you.
.
Fortunately for me, a lot of the music I listen everyday has a darker tone and lyrics that involve BDSM, erotica, bondage, longing, denial and torment, so it’s pretty easy to make things up on the fly.
.
My timing might not always be so perfect, as none of this is really choreographed but you get the point: music is incredibly important.
.
So, for those who are curious, I will go ahead and publicly share some of my favorite artists and songs that I like to play for people in certain circumstances. And because I also enjoy a little bit of a random mindfuck, I will let you in on my little secret… The very first song you hear when you walk through the door is a very intentional selection meant to dictate the tone and likely what will be happening to you during our time together, so listen very very carefully.
.
For instance, as previously mentioned – if I get the sense you need to have your orifices violated vigorously, you’re likely to hear this.
.
.
Also I’m very much into IAMX and use them very frequently when I have a scene that’s going to involve plenty of highs and lows but filled with immense amounts of energy.
Their catalog is shockingly diverse and amazingly appropriate for just about everything.

Lana Delray is often my go to when I want a more mellow or meditative scene. I have a heavy preference for her breathy tones when I’m doing a sensory deprivation scene in particular. Her voice tends to carry deep and permeating tones that often invade even the thickest hoods and ear plugs. A sultry woman’s voice whispering into your subconscious as I deprive the rest of you – is a very powerful thing.

Isn’t it simply amazing how enrapturing these songs are?
.
And I know there’s more than one of you hearing these and reflecting instantly to a moment where I had you at a complete disadvantage and well out of your depth…
